January 27 Zadankai - A New Approach to Law and Economic Development, with Reference to East Asia, CJEB Graduate Fellow Shari Cooperman reports
In the midst of a global economic crisis, it seems more relevant than ever to study factors that contribute to capital market strength and long-term economic growth in emerging economies around the world. On Tuesday, January 27, the Weatherhead East Asian Institute cosponsored a brown bag lecture with the Center on Japanese Economy and Business and the Harriman Institute titled "A New Approach to Law and Economic Development, with Reference to East Asia." The discussion focused on the findings presented in the recently released book, Law and Capitalism, which was coauthored by Columbia Law School Professors Curtis Milhaupt and Katharina Pistor.
